The rookies led the way once again. Brook Lopez scored 25 points on 8-of-13 shooting, Ryan Anderson added 20 points and five boards, and Chris Douglas-Roberts 15 points, four assists and two steals. And the three rookies combined to shoot 29-for-29 from the free throw line.

It’s nice that he can score and all, but he hasn’t grabbed more than rebounds in any game. I don’t like what I see in that

He has to get a double double at least. If he can’t manage to get 10 in one game against guys who probably won’t see the league, can you imagine how we’re gonna get beasted on the boards when the real season starts? It’s not as if Sean Williams has learned to be a rebounding force. So Josh is our only really reliable rebounder
